- **Event Name**: Hold On to This for Me: a Joe Flaherty Legacy Writing Workshop
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 03:15 pm
- **Event Description**: Apart from money and physical heirlooms, what do you want to give your loved ones so they will remember, appreciate, and learn from you for generations to come? In this generative workshop you’ll write letters, stories, short nonfiction pieces, or poems that share the depth and breadth of the life you’ve lived, as well as the dreams and ambitions you still wish to achieve. Your writing will bring you closer to others, connect you to past and future generations, and also generate meaningful, even surprising, self-revelation. So bring a friend, a pen, and a notebook, and get ready to express what you hold most dear! No prior creative writing experience necessary.
